AusCERT has become aware of a potentially serious new Windows 7 (64 bit version) vulnerability,
exposing a flaw in win32k.sys. A Twitter user, with the handle w3bd3vil, tweeted HTML code that
causes a BSOD (blue screen of death aka system crash) if viewed using Apple's Safari browser. At
this stage only the BSOD has been unofficially reported, however the vulnerability could evolve
"into a local privilege escalation issue or a remote code execution as admin problem". [1] AusCERT
will continue monitoring this vulnerability, providing an update if official sources confirm its
accuracy.
